Media functions

• Software module(s) providing the functionality for a broadcast/media application

• Field upgradable when accelerator available

• Scaling

• Paving the way for full IP based media production and virtual production environments



Virtuoso for contribution

• Multi-format compression “all in one”

− Linear (SMPTE 2022-6)

− JPEG2000 SD/HD

− JPEG2000 UHD (4K)

− H.264/AVC

− Transport stream (ST 2022-2)

• Redundancy & reliability suites

• Monitoring suites


* Future development

FECSMPTE2022-7 LDO


Up to 4 baseband SDI video signals

H.264/AVC contribution

• High quality coding (4:2:2 10 bits) − Better picture quality

• High density − Lower price per service

• Most complete protection suite − Reduce the risk for penalties

• Unique AES scrambling − Protect valuable asset (crucial

for primary distribution)
